GameStone's Knuckle Visor Fitting Guide

Tools required

4mm Allen Key - Trim screws
Phillips screw driver - Removing the original visors
10mm Ring spanner or socket - Mirror removal
T25 Torx screw driver or driver bit - New Knuckle Visor screws

So lets start






Remove the four large 4mm domed cap head bolts on the side fairings holding the small black dash trims, take the two trim pieces out watching that you don't scratch the tank.





Remove the six 4mm domed cap head bolts holding the large inside dash panel (two on the inside)



The original Visor trim is removed by undoing the two screws on the inside (per side), also removed the two 10mm Nuts (per side) holding the mirrors on.

Transfer the black rubber trim from the original Visor to the new Knuckle Visor.





Fit the two Knuckle Visors with the new torx screws, do not over tighten as it will crack the plastic trim.


Refit the two mirrors using the two larger spacers per side (original spacer shown on left for comparison)

Refit the three dash trim pieces.

Remember DO NOT over tighten any of the bolts.

Job done

Makes motorway riding much nicer on the hands as it blocks quite a bit of the wind.

These are quite expensive items from Yamaha (£109.99 in the UK) but they are well made and with a perfect colour match.

I was curious and thought maybe others might be too.....

Well thats cool.
We dont get groovy stuff like that here. I think we need to sacrifice a few lawyers.

On my site I made an animated gif of before and after.

Nice job Gamestone. :thumbup:

If I were to say Upper Belvedere to you what would you think?

Sorry to be off topic, but what is that fish/snake thing on the roadabout in Erith

So i'm curious. How much do these help with blocking the cold wind? I've been thinking about getting these ever since my first cold season. Are they worth the money?

They keep most of the breeze off your hands but they do push the air upwards onto your shoulders. this causes some buffeting which can be annoying at motorway speed.

Worth the money? Maybe

But I think hand guards would be better suited and quite a bit cheaper too.

Would I buy them again? Yes I would even though they are very expensive for what they are.
